Not in the Visit Note is an anonymous podcast hosted by two speech-language pathologists, sharing the conversations that happen after the visit ends—the ones that never make it into the chart.

Each week, we break down the good, the bad, and the ugly of speech therapy life: clinical wins, awkward moments, cancelled visits, productivity pressure, family dynamics, and the emotional weight of the work we do. With honesty, humor, and professionalism, we unpack the realities of being clinicians—where boundaries blur and the work doesn’t end when the session does.

All stories are told through generalized, anonymized, and composite experiences, offering validation, insight, and solidarity for SLPs and rehab professionals who have ever thought, “I can’t put that in the visit note.”

    Ep. 11 “But My Doctor Said…”: When One Opinion Becomes the Only Plan
    Mar 31 2026
    Ever heard a parent say, “But my doctor said he’ll grow out of it” or “We’re just going to wait because the pediatrician isn’t worried”? In this episode of Not in the Visit Note, we dive into what happens when parents rely solely on one professional opinion—and how that can sometimes delay support kids truly need.

    As speech-language professionals, we unpack the gap between medical reassurance and developmental reality. We’re not here to bash doctors—we’re here to add perspective. We’ll talk about common phrases parents hear, why they can be misleading, and what families should consider when making decisions about their child’s communication and development.

    This episode is all about empowering parents to ask more questions, trust their instincts, and understand that one voice shouldn’t be the only voice guiding their child’s care.

    No names. No facilities. Just validation, dark humor, and the stuff that never makes it into the visit note.

    Ep. 10 Social Media vs Reality
    Mar 22 2026
    Speech therapy on social media looks magical: perfectly curated therapy rooms, kids happily participating, and every strategy working the first time. Meanwhile in real life… there are meltdowns, toys being thrown, sessions that go completely off script, and progress that takes time. In this episode of Not in the Visit Note, we talk about the difference between social media speech therapy and what therapy actually looks like behind the scenes. We break down the highlights people post, the messy parts they don’t, and why therapy progress rarely fits into a 30-second reel.

    Ep. 9 Wh-Questions
    Mar 15 2026
    In this episode of Not In the Visit, we’re talking about the classic “WH questions” parents ask that leave therapists quietly shaking their heads. From “Why can’t my child talk yet?” to “When will they be normal?” and the ever-popular “Why can’t you just make them say it?” — we’re breaking down the questions we hear all the time in therapy sessions.

    We discuss where these questions come from, the misconceptions behind them, and what parents might not realize about speech and language development. With a mix of humor, honesty, and real talk from the therapy room, we unpack the moments that make clinicians glance at each other and think… “that was definitely not in the visit.”

    Expect relatable stories, a little venting, and a lot of truth about what really goes on behind those WH questions.
